Shiny suit Era had better music

 

[kingblaze84]

Co-sign it was the video era, when rappers spent money on videos, fans still bought CDs, the fans where real, baggy jeans, tees, tims, forces, the music was dope,nthat's I'm talking bout productive music.... People still bought magazines like The Source and XXL...

Yeah, hip-hop and fashion in general was much better then. The new skinny jean faggot look is pretty damn lame, but most importantly the music was at its best. I like a lot of new music now but I'll take shiny suits over skinny jean fashion anytime.

I still buy hip-hop magazines but not nearly as much as I did in the early 2000s and late 90s, that's cuz there were better artists to check from, not as shallow and subpar as many of the people out now. I'm probably checking for no more then 5 new artists now, if that

damn half of you niggas dont even post anymore

Lol I was just thinking how I don't post in the Reason like I used to, I think cuz hip-hop isn't as exciting these days lyrically or emotionally. Don't get me wrong, many tight songs out there but not as good as the mid 2000s or early 2000s. The passion of DMX, the fun of G-Unit in its prime, the greatness of Jay in American Gangster, etc, those moments aren't in hip-hop as much right now.

A shiny suit? when & where were those on the market? I was in my 20's through most of the 90s and I never came across

The Shiny Suit Era was basically from 96 to 99....it wasn't necessarily about the way of dress but the type of music....the happy go lucky...poppin bottles....expensive videos....club scenes etc. it was just called the Shiny Suit Era because this really began in a major way with Bad Boy records and Bad Boy Videos from about 96 to 2002 all his artists wore shiny suits in videos...

Diddy had a skit on the Bad Boy family album that dopped in 2002/2003 explaining what the Shiny Suit was for people who didn't understand it

Can you name other artist outside of Bad Boy who was wearing shinny suits and im not talking r&b,or Missy?
